Abstract

A hearing device having an input unit for converting an acoustic input to a first signal, an output unit for converting a second signal to an acoustic output and a signal processing unit for generating said second signal from said first signal based on a setting indicating a characteristic of a user's ear, said signal processing unit coupling said input unit and said output unit, to a corresponding method for providing a hearing aid and a corresponding computer program. In order to provide an adaptive hearing device and a method for providing a hearing aid which allow for a compensation for the change in a characteristic of a user's ear, in particular for the change to the ear of a child during growth and which are of a low complexity and do not need additional sensors.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a hearing device comprising an input unit for converting an acoustic input into a first signal, an output unit for converting a second signal into an acoustic output, and a The first signal generates a signal processing unit of the second signal, and the signal processing unit is connected to the input unit and the output unit. The invention also relates to a method of providing a hearing aid, comprising the steps of: converting an acoustic input into a first signal; generating a second signal from the first signal based on settings indicative of a user's ear characteristics; and converting the second signal into an acoustic output . The invention also relates to a computer program which, when run on said hearing device, causes the hearing device to perform the steps of the method of providing a hearing aid. Background technique [0002] A challenge in pediatric audiology is the ear canal that is shorter in length and...
